6-3-3-13. Adoption credit
Sec. 13. (a) This section applies only to taxable years beginning after December 31, 2014.
(b) Each taxable year, an individual who is eligible to claim the credit provided by Section 23 of the Internal Revenue Code on the individual's federal return for the taxable year is entitled to a credit against the individual's adjusted gross income tax liability for the taxable year equal to the lesser of:
(1) the amount of the credit allowable under Section 23 of the Internal Revenue Code for each eligible child on the individual's federal return for the taxable year multiplied by ten percent (10%); or
(2) one thousand dollars ($1,000) for each eligible child.
(c) The credit provided by this section may not exceed the amount of the taxpayer's adjusted gross income tax liability for the taxable year, reduced by the sum of all credits for the taxable year that are applied before the application of the credit provided by this section. The amount of any unused credit under this section for a taxable year may not be carried forward to a succeeding taxable year, carried back to a preceding taxable year, or refunded.
(d) If all or part of the credit allowed under Section 23 of the Internal Revenue Code for a taxable year beginning after December 31, 2014, is required to be claimed in, or carried forward to, a taxable year after the taxable year in which the credit is first allowed, the part carried forward and allowed to be claimed as a credit shall be treated as allowable under subsection (b). A credit first allowed under Section 23 of the Internal Revenue Code for a taxable year beginning before January 1, 2015, and required to be claimed in, or carried forward to, a taxable year after the taxable year in which the credit is first allowed shall not be treated as allowable under subsection (b).
